When our
friends at Burger King announced that they would be offering STAR WARS
toys with their kids' meals, we were happy that our interest in the movies
would be
carried through to the next generation. Little did we know, however, that
hiding among
these harmless plastic creations depicting creatures from a long time ago
in a galaxy
far, far away would be the blight upon the universe known as Jar Jar Binks.
After
our initial revulsion at seeing an uncanny simulacrum of this horrid beast
leaning
aganst - even touching - our fries, we knew we had to do something. We spent
the
next several days (actually it was the next10-15 minutes) devising methods
to maim,
disfigure, and even kill this atrocity.
"Yousa say meesa gonna die?!?"
Knowing
that we can't be the only STAR WARS fans to despise this monstrosity, we
realized that we had to offer our GeoCaching friends the opportunity to take
part as well.
Here
are the rules: place the Jar Jar TB in simulated
life-threatening situations. Take
a photo, then upload the picture to share with the world.
If you
like Jar Jar (gah!), please just move him along to another cache where he
might
be found by another right-minded cacher. And please, no matter how strong
the
temptation, do not actually harm the TB. We were able to resist; although
it's difficult,
you can as well.
